New Delhi : Low-cost carrier IndiGo has written to the Delhi airport operator refusing to shift a part of its flight operations from terminal 1 (T1) to terminal 2 (T2) and threatened “action” if it is forced to do so. Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) had asked airlines operating from T1 to shift one-third of their flights to T2 to be able to carry out expansion work according to its master plan and to meet growing passenger numbers.

No-frills airlines IndiGo, SpiceJet and GoAir operate from T1, which handled around 24 million passengers in 2016-17 whereas its rated capacity is 20 million passengers per annum.

“We are not agreeable to shifting only a part of our operations from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2 of IGI Airport, New Delhi with effect from October 29, 2017,” the IndiGo letter said.
